Interview: Robin Pecknold Of Fleet Foxes

This week, Benji had a chance to talk to Fleet Foxes lead singer Robin Pecknold. The band just released their gorgeous new album Shore, which is out on Anti-. 

In the interview, Pecknold sheds light on Shore, including the significance of releasing the album on the fall equinox, how music has helped him personally during the pandemic, the optimistic outlook of the music, and how he can’t wait to get back on the road.

“I want to tour more now than ever,” he said. “Every show back for like a year or two is going to be just the best shows anyone’s ever been to or ever played.”

Shore is the fourth album from Fleet Foxes and the first since 2017’s Crack-Up. That album’s tour brought the band to Red Rocks
